I know your probably going to murder me for not posting for so long but know that this is an extreme case (hopefully). Something's I just wanted to say is that if you are wondering how I got the names for the incognito Supreme Beings, I just Took a important aspect of them, plopped it into google translate and used that. The only exception is Tabula who is of course based on the Greek god of travel and medicine, I think. As you might imagine I'm not at all intending this to be the next God Rising, and while I will be experimenting with the story a good amount, this is in the humor section for a reason. Ok enough talking back to the story
Momonga was enjoying the sunlight, as he walked through the scenic landscape. Back in the Old World something like this was impossible to even imagine let alone do. Despite his undead nature, which lessened the feeling, it was still vary much enjoyable. If he had to say something bad about it, it would probably be...
"Don't worry, nothing can escape my eyes and ears. Aren't I great Herupu?"
Lukrut's constant flirting with Yamaiko
As soon as they left the guild he had been swarming her like a moth to a flame. The Supreme Beings were regretting bringing the Swords of Darkness
"You've said that same pickup line, five times now."
"Oh but I shall keep saying it until you finally realize your true feelings for me."
'He's getting more and more like Peroroncino with every sentence.' Takemikazuchi said
The Swords of Darkness smiled bitterly, mostly unfazed by their members behavior
The two were so busy arguing that they were unable to notice the white armored paladin approaching from behind. When he got to the two he lifted Lukrut up by the shoulders as if he weighed nothing, and placed him at the front of the cart
"Perhaps you could use them better if you stopped talking." His voice was calm but his words were dripping with venom
The Swords of Darkness all seemed frightened by how easily Touch Me picked up Lukrut
"I apologize for my teammates behavior." Peter said
"Its fine, I'll ignore it as long as he stops." Yamaiko replied
"Thank you."
'I don't think I've seen to get that mad at anyone except Ulbert' Momonga said
'I have had to spend the last two weeks working with him, and this is my one chance to really get away from him. I'm not going to have be ruined because of some overly perverted idiot.'
For a while the trip went smoothly, with Takemikazuchi and Tabula learning much about this world from Ninya, and the rest of the Supreme Beings just enjoying being out in nature
They were traveling along a wide plane when suddenly Lukrut spoke in a serious provisional tone, completely different from how he was previously
"Movement."
Everyone else quickly drew their weapons
"Where?"
"There, by the forest."
As he said that several figures emerged from where he was pointing. Fifteen goblins and six ogres
"What do we do?"
"Looks like we can't avoid a fight."
Takemikazuchi thought for a moment before answering
"Our main goal is to protect Nfirea, so we should lure them out before attacking so they can't slip past us. Me and Kirai can act as a front while Peter, Lukrut, and Dyne handle the one's that slip through our attacks. Ninya, Herupu, and Hermes can buff us from the rear while Kazoku uses [Fire Ball] to help clear their numbers. Is that alright with you?" Takemikazuchi finished as he turned to Peter
"We dont have any complaints, let's do this."
Lukrut shot an arrow at their foes missing by a large margin. The failed attack reinvigorated the goblins as they charged
"[Reinforce Armor]"
"[Middle Dexterity]"
"[Eagle Eye]"
Ninya, Yamaiko, and Tabula began to cast buff spells on the team
With [Eagle Eye] cast on him Lukrut begin to shoot at the goblins, finding it much easier to do so
"[Fireball]"
Once the enemy's got close Takemikazuchi and Touch Me rushed into them, as Momonga's [Fireball] rushed overhead. It slammed into the enemy casing a large explosion to emerge from the impact point
Seeing the [Fireball] destroy a large portion of their allies the enemy was held in place for a moment, which was all Takemikazuchi needed
He ran though the opening to behind them, as Touch Me began slaughtering everything in his way
Seeing the tide of battle turning the remaining goblins and ogres tried to ran around Takemikazuchi, back into the forest
The ogres were far to slow and were cut down as soon as they turned their attention from Touch Me. The few remaining goblins seeing no other choice, made a suicidal charge to the forest, only to be hatched down by the superhuman speed of Takemikazuchi
The Swords of Darkness could only look on in awe, as an opponent they would struggle, and might even lose to, was slaughtered with almost no effort
'Do you think we over did it?' Momonga asked
'No, this is impressive, but it should still be responsible for higher ranked adventurers.' Tabula replied
After collecting the ears of the slain foes so they could collect their bounty the group continued their journey. After a few hours, the sun began to set, so they decided to set up camp for the night. It was a new experience for the Supreme Beings, and with the calming atmosphere they enjoyed it for as long as they could
After most of the work was done, everyone sat down to eat, bringing a new problem for the Supreme Beings to solve
"Is their something wrong?" Peter asked seeing that they had not begun eating
"Ah no it's just our religion. We can't eat with more then five people on a day we take a life." Momonga said
"Oh… that's an unusual faith you follow. Still, the world is large, and religions like that aren't particularly strange." Dyne replied
'Looks like even in another world, any sane person won't touch religion with a ten foot pole.' Tabula commented
After that it became fairly quiet, so Touch Me tried to start up conversation again
"Your name is 'Swords of Darkness' right? Why is that? It seems like a strange thing to name yourselves."
"Says the guy who called himself 'touch me'" Tabula rebuked
…
"I- I thought it would be funny! I didn't think it would lead to this!"
The Supreme Beings all started laughing at this, but the Swords of Darkness looked confused.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Oh well you see-!"
"Ahem." Momonga trying to save his friend any more embarrassment pretended to clear his throat
"Perhaps we should return to Kirai's original question."
"Ah- well it refers to the swords welded by one of the thirteen heroes." Ninya said
"What do you mean?" Yamaiko asked
The Swords of Darkness looked at her in shock
"You don't know?... well I suppose that's not unreasonable. He was one of the Thirteen Heroes, but because people thought he had demonic ancestry, he ended up being covered up in some of the story's. The Swords of Darkness belonged to the man known as 'Black Knight.' It was one of the four swords he possessed. There was the demonic blade Kilineyram, which could emit dark energy, the blade of rot, Crocdabal, which inflicted wounds that would not heal, the fatal blade Sfeiz, which could kill with the merest scratch, as well as the evil blade Hyumilis, whose powers are unknown."
'That sounds like the ability's of a [Cursed Knight]' Takemikazuchi commented
'But they said it was the swords that had the abilities. Is it possible that a [Cursed Knight] from YGGDRASIL came to this world and made them?' Tabula asked
"It's our goal to find these blades, but while theirs a lot of legends surrounding them we still don't know for sure if they exist-"
"Actually I heard one of the blue roses has one of them" Nifrea said causing the Swords of Darkness to go into a frenzy
"What!?"
"That means we won't be able to distribute them evenly now!"
"But that also means they really-"
'They sound like us.' Touch Me said
'Like when we were starting out...' Takemikazuchi added
'... I miss those days.' Momonga said
They could all agree with that
Once they became a top guild everything had to be efficient, tactical, and thought out. While they still enjoyed it, it was never like when they were still just a small clan of Heteromorphs trying to get away from the stronger humans. Even when they arrived here they could never truly relax, as they had to keep up their act of being all powerful gods constantly. It was all so tiring. But now, they could finally relax
When morning broke the group resumed their journey to Carne village
"We should be arriving soon." Nifrea told them
Next to them were golden fields of wheat so close to them that they had to walk in a line to avoid them
"That's strange." Nifrea suddenly spoke
"What's wrong?" Yamaiko asked
"I don't remember their being a fence like that before."
Sure enough there was a somewhat shabby wooden fence around the village
"Why not, Isn't this a border town? Shouldn't it have a fence or better yet a wall to protect it?" Takemikazuchi asked
"Well with most villages yes, but Carne is in the territory of the Wise King of the Forest, so they never needed a fence."
"The Wise King of the Forest?"
"Yes he's-"
They walked for a few more minutes before they noticed movement in the wheat. They all began to ready themselves for combat, warriors drawing weapons, casters readying spells, and Nifrea panicking
But before they could probably react, one of the goblins spoke
"Could you put your weapons down?"
'These must be the goblins summoned from the [Horn of the Goblin General].' Tabula realized
The Swords of Darkness began panicking so Touch Me tried to defuse the situation. He had been in situations like this before and knew that it could escalate easily
"What do you want? We have no gripe with you."
"Neither do we, we're just making sure you aren't a threat. Just drop you weapons and wait for our General to arrive."
The group waited while trying to assure Nifrea that things will be ok. After a minute a girl, no older then 13, arrived at the gate. The Supreme Beings recognized her as the girl they saved from the two knights
"Enri! What's going on!?" Nifrea suddenly shouted
"Nifrea!?"
The Supreme Beings were overlooking the village from a hilltop, when Nifrea ran over to them
"K- Kirai!"
"Calm down, is something wrong?"
Nifrea stoped in front of them taking several deep breaths before asking
"A- are you Ainz Ooal Gown!?"
''Fuck'' all of the Supreme Beings thought at the same time
"W-what makes you say that?"
"Last night Hermes said that at one point you called yourself 'Touch Me', and Enri said that one of the people who saved Carne also called himself Touch Me."
'God damn it Tabula!' Yamaiko said
'It was just a joke! I didn't think it would end up like this!'
'Where have I heard that before!?'
Seeing the stunned states of the Supreme Beings Nifrea bowed deeply
"Thank you for saving this village."
"P- please raise your head. Anyone would have done what we did."
"No, many people would have just ignored them but you went out of your way to help them. I thank you for that."
He was right and they all knew that. Their old world had taught them that more then enough times
"And... theirs something else I haven't told you."
"Hm? What is it?"
"I originally knew of you because a woman had brought in a red potion and told me that you were the one how gave it to her."
'Punitto Moe would be ashamed of us.'
"I hired you to try to learn how to make it."
Nifrea seemed ashamed of what he had done
"And what were you planning to do with it if you were to accomplish you goal?"
"Huh? I didn't think that far ahead, I just wanted to know it."
"Then I don't see anything wrong with what you were doing. It wasn't the best thing to do, but you didn't do it to harm anyone so I don't think it was wrong."
Nifrea seemed stunned at his interpretation of what he had down
"Now then does anyone else know of this?"
"No, I just wanted to thank you in person."
"Good, remember that for now I am just Kirai the adventurer. That being said their is no need to stand on ceremony, I was simply righting a wrong when I saw it."
"No you did far more then that."
"Well if that's what you want to believe then I will not stop you."
It feels weird if I don't put anything here soooo, thank you to everyone who left a review, they really help to motivate me
